I'm offended as a football fan that the media are driving this racist angle. No one else in the comp gets booed based on the colour of their skin, why is goodes different? He gets booed like heaps of players do that are arrogant, get paid too many soft free kicks and just seems like a bit of a di-ck.

I'm hurting too but are people really that surprised? Port are the third best team in the league and we are... Still bottom four material.

Our kicking skills are so much better than last year!

I know. But the trouble is they're a significantly better team than us Go dees

Can't see port losing today. At 3-5 it's desperate times for them. And I think they'll just beat us. Would be amazing if we won though!!

No change keep Viney/Jetta/Tyson fresh for QB. smash em on the track in the meantime

Really want to wait on Tyson. He hasn't looked the player he was last year so I'd give him as long as he needs to be 100% not 95%

Sounds like excuses to me. We really only have three or four important players out that are in our top 12 players. There are several clubs worse off that are missing key players. North, WC, GC etc what if T Mac, Jones etc were injured? Jt dropped last year, Tracca could be anything but hasnt played a game so you cannot say he is best 22 The Team need to suck it up

Far out that is pathetic from Watts if true. Asking to be dropped, has anyone ever done that before? No competitive footballer with any self respect would do that. Just give it away jack.

what other guns have we got in the 2nds that you guys would bring in? Jamar does not deserve to come back in Watts has been rubbish and soft and also desreves it

Don't agree jamar is a rest, surely the website would mention that? Pity toump and stretch come in without dominating at vfl but I guess we are struggling at the moment. Sydney have a very strong team. This could get messy

I heard Bell might be having some issues but havent heard of any others. Are there players with brain damage, ongoing issues I dont know about. who? just wondering

The mrp has been significantly better this year. So many rubbish inconsistent calls last year. Brisbane should appeal and get May off. I didn't see much wrong with his bump, the fact a player us injured does dictate the punishment for me I still don't like this 3 down to 2 early plea BS. If it's a two offence, it's 2 weeks. That's it. Call it like it is

What I think Roosey is thinking is that Toumpas' development is the most important thing at the moment. It was telling that he wasnt even named in the emergencies - and Stretch was. I reckon they are giving him 8-10 weeks at vfl and if he can start dominating week in week out, he will get in the ones and stay there. So then the question is, who was playing better than Mckenzie at casey? riley, jones? . much of a muchness

Yep, no-one as neutral in the media as Eddie. Far out. possibly the biased and conflicted man in sport!

Have a cup of tea and a lie down Jesse. Garry works in the media so he must speak the truth. Would you prefer he say - well the hawks have got the dees and they are one of the best teams going around? He wouldn't be taken seriously.

80 to 40 pt easy win for the dockers coming up. Hope I'm wrong

Totally different incidents. Hodge off the ball blatant hit. Has to be 3 you'd think Lewis late to contest. 1 week I'd reckon

Good to see Toump not considered. He needs to properly develop all parts if his game at vfl level. Once his confidence and hardness increase and he is dominating games, he will be back in Pederson will make the 22 I reckon. Ps check out freos extended bench. Would mind having that sort of depth. I have a feel sandi will be a late withdrawal for Hannath

Brayshaw leading the club our tackles having only played ~60% game time all up. What a gun VDB is 22 Hogan will get nominated this week for sure

Any idea on the crowd for those not there?

Aaaand back to the footy

Dees by 23 points Watts with 4 goals Tyson BOG with 28 and 2 Bern-eye to blanket Cotch Dusty to shave his side-burns

Watts is soft. Can't believe some are arguing otherwise. The fact that he is skilful and created goals is a seperate issue. I wouldn't drop him as he is a quality outside player that we can't afford to drop.
